Mint Playdough
This a delightful playdough recipe with the aroma of fresh mint!
If you have the including loose real mint leaves is a great way to add
texture to their play.
The beauty of this recipe is it doesn’t matter if your children eat it as
it’s all natural. You can also freeze and then defrost it when you want
to reuse it.
• 2 cups plain flour
• 1/2 cup salt
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 2 tbsp cream of tartar
• 1.5 cups boiling water with a Mint
Tea-bag soaked in it for a few minutes
• food colouring (optional)
• few drops glycerine (optional - adds more shine!)
1 Mix the flour, salt, cream of tartar and oil in a large mixing
bowl.
2 In a separate bowl, add the food colouring to the boiling
water then mix into the dry ingredients.
3 To keep it all natural, you can leave the food colouring out.
4 Stir continuously until it becomes a sticky, combined dough.
5 Add the glycerine at this stage (optional).
6 Allow it to cool down then take it out of the bowl and knead
it vigorously for a couple of minutes until all of the stickiness
has gone. This is the most important part of the process, so
keep at it until it’s the perfect consistency!
7 If it remains a little sticky then add a touch more flour until
just right.
Now it’s ready to be created by your child’s imagination.
